The golden shovel anthology : new poems honoring Gwendolyn Brooks / edited by Peter Kahn, Ravi Shankar, and Patricia Smith ; with a foreword by Terrance Hayes.
"The Golden Shovel Anthology celebrates the life and work of poet and civil rights icon Gwendolyn Brooks through a dynamic new poetic form, the Golden Shovel, created by National Book Award-winner Terrance Hayes. The form uses a line from another poem (in this case, all lines come from Gwendolyn Brooks poems) to create end-words for a new poem. This second edition includes Golden Shovel poems by two winners and six runners-up from an international student poetry competition judged by Nora Brooks Blakely, Gwendolyn Brooks's daughter"-- Provided by publisher.
